The Democrats and the left-wing press have sent out a warning for the next debates. If the “moderators” don’t shield Obama from the tough questions and help make Romney look bad, they, too, will be crucified.

On Friday afternoon, Sen. John McCain paid a visit to CNBC to discuss the latest jobs number, among other topics. Asked about the theory that President Obama‘s administration somehow manipulated the numbers in order to reflect a desired outcome, McCain said he doesn’t know enough about economics to make such a claim — but that he “wouldn’t put anything past” this administration.

Final weekend thought: If Obama, Biden, Axelrod or Al Gore try to spin the debate to give every excuse in the book why their man lost to Romney, remember this: More than 60-million people watched for themselves. It was Obama who was doing the dancing (more like dancing around) when questioned. Now what percentage of that +65-million watching do you think are brain dead enough to just say, “Obama won” and/or “Romney lied?” After watching all 90-minutes, are you gonna listen to some spin doctor on any netwrok tell you something like “No, you didn’t hear that. You heard THIS.”

Have a great weekend. I won’t be posting until Tuesday, so if any other Ralph Hahns spring up, you’ll know it’s not me. Ciao.

Don’t get me wrong Obama look disinterested and therefore came off bad, but looking good but lieing through your teeth or changing your position on everything you campaigned on doesn’t really scream “win” in my books

For those who care.

The number of unemployed persons, at 12.1 million, decreased by 456,000 in September. (See table A-1.)

Total employment rose by 873,000 in September, following 3 months of little change.

The number of persons employed part time for economic reasons (sometimes referred to as involuntary part-time workers) rose from 8.0 million in August to 8.6 million in September. These individuals were working part time because their hours had been cut back or because they were unable to find a full-time job.

In September, 2.5 million persons were marginally attached to the labor force, essentially unchanged from a year earlier. (These data are not seasonally adjusted.) These individuals were not in the labor force, wanted and were available for work, and had looked for a job sometime in the prior 12 months.

They were not counted as unemployed because they had not searched for work in the 4 weeks preceding the survey.

Among the marginally attached, there were 802,000 discouraged workers in September, a decline of 235,000 from a year earlier. (These data are not seasonally adjusted.) Discouraged workers are persons not currently looking for work because they believe no jobs are available for them. The remaining 1.7 million persons marginally attached to the labor force in September had not searched for work in the 4 weeks preceding the survey for reasons such as school attendance or family responsibilities.

Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 114,000 in September. In 2012, employment growth has averaged 146,000 per month, compared with an average monthly gain of 153,000 in 2011.

Go to this link and look at the first group of numbers. Then go to the extreme righthand side and look at the ROW labled: Employed. Look at the numbers for Aug and Sept. This is where the fudge factor comes in to arrive at the 7.8% unemployment rate.
